Overall we loved staying here, but there were only a few noticeable drawbacks from making it the perfect stay for us. None of the doors latched (bathroom, rooms) except for the main entrance door and there should also be a disclosure about the road because, unless you have a larger car, it is almost un-driveable and it made our car stall out almost every single time it went up the road and, because the car is small and lower to the ground, we would scrape the front of the car. Aside from these, it was a cozy and wonderful stay and we loved waking up to the sun and water everyday! I just believe this would be better suited for those with a truck or large SUV.

Everything about this house was perfect. We really enjoyed watching the eagles fly around and the fish jump in the river. My son had a great time fishing off the dock. It was incredibly quiet, but the sites weren’t too far away. We loved that we weren’t battling crowds all week. Most relaxing vacation we’ve had in years!

Honeymoon

This is the 2nd time my wife I stayed here, and the property and location couldn't be more magical! This 2nd time was our official honeymoon trip, and got to watch a pair of bald eagles be at home, right in the cove next to this cabin. Absolutely amazing and will always go back. Thanks again!!

Winter getaway

Great location. Spectacular views. House is comfortable & well-appointed, though living room furniture is a little worn. Minor issues with the keypad. Took more tries than necessary to get it to work each time. Instructions for TV remotes and fireplace would have been helpful. Again, minor issues. Overall a great cabin.

Beautiful but clarity needed

Wonderful property on the water. Beautiful views. Private but close enough to essentials and plenty of sight seeing/activities. The canoe on site still has at least one of the same holes mentioned in a review a year ago. Only one person can use it or you will sink. I did not want to be the one. Picture shows boats on dock, but there is nothing on the property you can use. Should be very clear in the listing. I did find a nice, reasonably priced rental facility about 15 minutes away. Seaspray Kayaking and Paddle in Brunswick. We would stay again, but make sure we have a good vehicle to transport kayaks.

Wonderful, relaxing cottage

We loved our stay at the cottage. One morning, we saw an eagle swoop down to catch a fish and saw two seals swimming by. The kitchen had everything we needed. The water pressure in the shower was very low, but hopefully that will get fixed soon.

Short weekend trip

We rented this property for three nights. We chose it due to the water view and it’s proximity to Augusta as my husband was racing in the 70.3 Ironman. The house was very clean and the kitchen was fully stocked with all the kitchen appliances, pots and pans that we needed. The view was absolutely beautiful and we took full advantage of the fire pit and dock access. The property management team was very thorough and sent updates about early check in being available which was an added bonus. This was our first VRBO rental and they made it very smooth! Our only complaint was the water pressure. It was so bad it made it difficult to shower or do dishes. With that being said I wouldn’t hesitate to book this property again for a short stay but would not recommend six people staying here.

Beautiful home in Bowdoinham, Me

We loved the cabin. The view is spectacular (we saw 3 bald eagles), the cabin itself is very modern and has very good air conditioning. It was quite warm during our stay, so it was great to have a cool refuge. We loved the proximity to places of interest like Bath, Boothbay Harbor and others. Go to the Sea Dog Brewery in Topsham for some great food, and amazing scenery. One of our favorite meals was at Three Robbers Pub just a few minutes away in Bowdoinham. We had a lovely week at the house and in Maine. Note: the dishwasher is out of service and the grill (charcoal) should be replaced, but these were minor inconveniences for us.

Greay view but old and needs updating

Pros- you cannot beat the views of this cabin. It's located near many lakes and rivers. The place was clean and tidy and supplied laundry pods. Cons- very small for our party of 6. Theres a dock but no fishing gear, a kayak but no paddles. The fireplace is broken, the dishwasher was broken, despite being included in the description. I reached out to the property owners day one regaridng broken equipment and they didnt get back to me until after check out. Bottom line- stop at a walmart and get fishing gear, kayak paddles, and i would suggest 4 people or less.

NO water pressure

The place is beautiful, and pictures are true of the place. They do not tell you that there are nice patio chairs in the shed. Found on third day when we were trying to figure out where the trash goes. There is NO guidebook as to how to run things or to put trash. We did find the manual for some of the items in the far-left drawer in kitchen. We had a concern that we were having to figure out the dishwasher (it takes a few seconds for it to actually start, fyi) and the property manager reached out to us and helped out. No idea how to fully turn off the AC and was a pain blowing as we worked on items for the wedding. Luckily, SIL has had one at work and showed us. Again, if there was a manual. Has not been brought up before but there is NO water pressure. We were staying here since my daughter got married nearby. My other daughter has thick hair and had to go to a family member nearby to be able to wash her hair. I ran out of hot water before I was able to get all the soap out. We have well water at our home, so we are used to wells and the water from them. This was BAD. Also only three drinking glasses. LOTS of mugs - this is a plus - these places usually have only a couple. Wi-Fi works great. I would highly recommend and go back again - if only we could have showered on site. Even husband complained and he has very little hair!
